Microneedling is a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation treatment that stimulates your natural healing process. Using a specialized device with ultra-fine, sterile needles, it creates controlled microchannels in the skin. These tiny injuries trigger the production of collagen and elastin, two essential proteins that keep your skin firm, smooth, and resilient. Over time, this process helps improve skin tone, texture, scars, fine lines, and your overall complexion.

Microneedling Treats:

  • Fine lines and early wrinkles
  • Acne scars and other mild scarring
  • Uneven skin texture
  • Enlarged pores
  • Sun-damaged skin
  • Hyperpigmentation and discoloration
  • Dull, tired-looking skin
  • Mild skin laxity
  • Stretch marks
  • Uneven skin tone
  • Rough or crepey skin

How Microneedling Works

Microneedling uses a device with sterile, ultra-fine needles to create thousands of controlled micro-injuries, or microchannels, in your skin. Although these tiny punctures are barely visible, they activate your body’s natural wound-healing response. This process releases growth factors and stimulates fibroblasts, the cells responsible for producing collagen. As collagen remodels the skin over the following weeks and months, damaged tissue is gradually replaced with healthier, stronger skin. The result is smoother texture and a more radiant complexion.

Optimize Microneedling Results With PRF

For enhanced skin rejuvenation, microneedling can be paired with PRF (platelet-rich fibrin). PRF is created from a small sample of your own blood, which is processed to concentrate platelets, white blood cells, stem cells, and growth factors into a fibrin-rich matrix. After microneedling creates microchannels in your skin, PRF is applied to the treatment area, allowing these regenerative components to penetrate more effectively. Together, they support collagen production, accelerate your healing process, and may improve skin texture, tone, firmness, and overall rejuvenation beyond what microneedling alone can achieve. Our providers can help determine whether this combination is the right option for your goals.

Microneedling FAQs:

How Is Microneedling Performed?

Your treatment begins with a consultation so our providers can evaluate your skin and understand your goals. After cleansing your skin, a topical numbing cream is typically applied for comfort. A specialized microneedling device is then moved across the treatment area, creating precise microchannels at carefully selected depths. Depending on your needs, your treatment may be enhanced with PRF to maximize your skin’s natural regenerative response.

Does Microneedling Hurt?

Most people find microneedling very tolerable. Because a topical anesthetic is applied before treatment, you may only feel mild pressure, vibration, or a light scratching sensation. Our providers adjust the treatment depth based on the area being treated and your comfort level, helping ensure a positive experience from beginning to end.

What Is Recovery Like?

You can expect your skin to appear pink or mildly red, similar to a light sunburn, for the first day or two. Mild swelling, dryness, or flaking may occur as your skin renews itself. Our providers will give you clear aftercare instructions to support healing and help you achieve the best possible results.

When Will I See the Results?

Some people notice brighter, smoother skin within a few weeks, but collagen remodeling is a gradual biological process. As your body produces new collagen and elastin, improvements continue to develop over several weeks and months. A series of two to three treatments (sometimes more) is often recommended to achieve the most comprehensive, long-lasting results.
